Have you disabled Xorg input hot-plugging so that the behavior will revert back to xorg-server1.4 instead of using hal and dbus to autodetect devices? From the log it seems that hal autodetects your keyboard.

If you haven't disabled hotplugging, add this in your xorg.conf first.

Code: 
Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection

I just recall it from memory, so the options might be different. But give it a shot.

Having configured "pc102" and "de" and nodeadkeys
but "pc105" and "us" is used. (Look on red and blue text.)

And want to get rid of:

Warning: Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols

Did you try disabling hotplugging? If you want XkbLayout to work in xorg.conf, you need to disable hal and dbus autodetecting your devices. Otherwise it won't work.

On my box OOo is culprit here, however those messages are harmless.
